Is it worth doing Electronic engineering ?? salary of electronics and communication engineering ?? top recruiter companies ??

There are lots of engineering branches available nowadays. Some of them became very popular and started giving good placements as well. Electronic engineering (also called electronics and communications engineering) is one of them. Today we’ll discuss about this branch of engineering, good colleges, subjects to study, job profiles-salary etc.

What is Electronic Engineering

Electronic engineering is a discipline of Electrical engineering. In this program students will learn about mainly the functionality and manufacturing of various electronic components from the smallest internal chip of cell-phones to the largest components of power-grids, of aero planes or of various auto-mobiles.

Sub-fields:

1. Signal processing:

Signal processing is an electrical (or electronic) engineering subfield .It deals with analysing, modifying and synthesizing signals.

2. Telecommunications engineering:

This branch of Engineering seeks to support and enhance telecommunication systems. The work ranges from basic circuit design to strategic mass developments.

3. Electromagnetics:

This course deals with electromagnetic phenomena in modern applications, including wireless and optical communications, circuits, computer interconnects, microwave communications and radar, antennas, sensors, micro-electromechanical systems, and power generation and transmission.

4. Control engineering:

Control engineering is an engineering branch that applies automatic control theory to design systems with desired behaviors in control environments. Sometimes it is taught along with electrical engineering at many institutions around the world.

5. Instrumentation engineering:

It is the branch of engineering that mainly deals with the production of measuring instruments that are used for indicating, measuring different physical quantities. But this branch is quite domain(Working area or profile) dependent.

6. VLSI engineering:

Very large-scale integration (VLSI) is the process of creating an integrated circuit (IC) by combining millions of MOS transistors onto a single chip.

How to study Electronic engineering in India:

In India there are many colleges that offer Bachelors degree (B.Tech.) in Electronics and communication engineering. To avail this course the students are must required to qualify any of the 2 conditions.
1. Candidates must have passed 10+2 with minimum qualifying marks in aggregate with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics as core subjects. Independent entrance tests (JEE mains & advanced, WBJEE etc.) are also held by the various state, central, and private universities.
2. Diploma holder or graduates must have passed the lateral entry tests conducted by various state (e.g. - JELET for West Bengal).

4. Design and Development Engineer, Electronic Systems
5. Microelectronics Engineer

Salary of Electronic Engineers:

The most crucial part here is the salary of the Electronic as well as telecommunication/communication engineer (as it is an combined course) in India. I searched many websites to provide you the the most appropriate information about that. So, here the result is ---

Average Electronics engineer salary is $77,106(in US)

 It ranges between $47k & $118k (in US) 

In India the salary of a fresher electronics engineer ranges from 2,00,000 rupees per anum to 30 lakhs rupees per anum.
